And as no certificate has been received either by Mrs Freeman or myself as her agent, and as her money can not be drawn without, I have to request a further examination of the case and the issue of a certificate if none has been made and forwarded for Mrs Freeman under the above named acts.

State of Connecticut Comptroller's Office,
Hartford, 9 Novem. 1847.
I certify that on application for evidence of the service of Enoch Freeman in the war of the Revolution, I have examined the books and papers remaining in this Office relating to that war, and find that on the 14 th of June 1776 the Legislature of this State ordered a Regiment to be raised, to be under the command of Colonel John Chester, and of which Samuel Thompson was appointed a Captain. Also, the following account in a Ledger of the late Pay Table Office, —
“Cap. Samuel Thompson D r ————— Contra ————— C r ” “1776 June 19 To order on Treasr. for y s C r £580.—” 1776 June 26 By Cap. Gershom Barrows “who took y s place & y s money made £580.” “Dr. . . . .”
There is also an account on the same books with Cap. Gershom Barrows, and this entry, —
“Cap. Gershom Barrows Chester Regiment C r ” 1777 July 8 — “By acct. rend d for his C r viz:—    “ Enlisting Prem s £237  Equipping do. £75.14.  £312.14.0    “ Wages from Enlisting till march?   92. 1. 7    “ Cash p d Treasr. p d rec d !   102. 7. 11    “ Amo t of Loss Bills . . . . .   15. 8. 0    “ Commis n at 1 1/2 p c C r ! . . . . .   7. 8. 6      530. 0. 0  
No Pay Roll of this Company has been found. We find that the above sum corresponds nearly in amo t with credits to the other Captains of this regiment, And from the Pay Rolls of Cap. Chester Wells of this Reg t (the only ones now over

remaining,) we learn that his Company served generally six months, to Decent. 25. the period to which this Regiment was ordered to serve by the Legislature.
I also find that Samuel Thompson, Gershon Barrows, and Lemuel Barrows, all from Mansfield, were Officers in the Lexington Alarm.
